Overview


There are hundreds of choice bulbs that revel in southern warmth and humidity, and Scott Ogden profiles the best of them in this fascinating, comprehensive volume. In a series of chapters that take us through the gardening year, Ogden introduces the plants that help to give southern gardens thier distinct regional flavor, many with charmingly descriptive names: rain lilies, ginger lilies, spider lilies, oxblood lilies, jonquils, campernelles, crinums, and scores of others. Weaving in bits of history and lore, Ogden details each plant's appearance and growing requirements. In a chapter devoted to designing with southern bulbs, he shares attractive combinations and useful techniques to add the beauty of these flowers to gardens. For those who may have had difficulty in locating sources for the plants he discusses, Ogden includes an extensive list of mail-order nurseries. A southern gardener writing for southern gardeners, Ogden takes as his mission not only to impart information but also to convey the richness and variety of gardening traditions in the South. Invaluable as a reference for southerners, Garden Bulbs for the South will also be of use to gardeners in other regions with warm climates. Originally published to widespread acclaim in 1994, Garden Bulbs for the South has been updated and significantly expanded in this edition to include information on new varieties as well as nearly one hundred new photographs.
